Winston, Churchill, and Me : Childhood Memories of Summers with the Churchills Paperback / softback
by JONATHAN DUDLEY
Paperback / softback
Description
With echoes of The Go-Between, this touching short memoir tells the story of a young boy who is invited to stay with a school friend during the summer holidays and finds himself at Chartwell, the family home of Winston Churchill.
Jonathan Dudley was eight years old at the time and was accepted into the Churchill family alongside his school companion, the young Winston, grandson of the former Prime Minister.
Over two summers, as well as dealing with a 'hot and cold' relationship with young Winston, the young boy observed the comings and goings of various members of the Churchill family and visiting statesmen, and over 60 years later, he recalls what he saw through the eyes of a child.
The result is a collection of memories, some funny, some sad, some exuberant, some poignant, which together add up to an evocative and original sketch of Winston and Clementine Churchill at that time.
